 According to Meyer, the contest began in 2023 and is a joint project between the food bank and the Kenai Boys and Girls Club. This is the brainchild of just the WISCA and working with the Boys and Girls Club. It's kind of been a collaborative effort. This year, the contest begins at the 4th of July parade and extends through July 11th. Donations include non-perishable food and monetary donations to the food bank. In the first annual contest, food was donated at drop-off points across the two communities, but Meyer says that will change this year.
